Hey everyone. I have a Dell Latitude CPt laptop and I
installed Windows 98 on it. Everything's working, but the
display is only about half the screen, and I can only get
16 colors. It won't let me make the screen any bigger.
I've tried the "Setting; Advanced; Monitor; Change" and
then the wizard, but I'm not sure what to do. I
downloaded a Laptop 1024x820 or whatever driver from
the list, but the screen still can't change. Can someone
help????

Look for the drivers CD and install the video display adapter driver.

Look on the Dell web site or give them a call. My Dell laptop came with a
CD named: Drivers, Utilities and Applications
